Method
About 1 hr
Split the delphinium
Cut long delphinium spikes into usable 12-inch lengths so the blue reads throughout, not just at the top.
10 min
Set the yellow core
Group the yellow ranunculus in a loose triangle at the centre.
15 min
Balance the blues
Distribute delphinium and thistle evenly around the yellow so neither colour clumps.
15 min
Add white breathing room
Baby's breath separates the two strong colours and keeps the bouquet from looking heavy.
10 min
Finish the collar
Ring with eucalyptus, bind, and trim stems level.

Studio notes
Keep the palette to blue, yellow and white only — pink reads as a mistake here.
